"Reinventing Jesus puts top-flight scholarship on the bottom shelf. . . It will handsomely repay the effort of any serious reader looking for the real evidence behind historic belief in the deity of Christ." --Josh McDowell International speaker and author "The authors of Reinventing Jesus convincingly demonstrate that the Jesus of faith and the Jesus of history are one and the same. Amidst the swirl of misinformation and myth assaulting the popular culture today, here is a clear, digestible explanation for anyone wanting to know the facts about how the New Testament and the church's earliest teachings were developed and transmitted." --David Gregory Author, Dinner with a Perfect Stranger "In a media horizon currently littered with caricatures of Christ and the church that he founded, Reinventing Jesus is a refreshing breeze of honesty regarding Christian origins. People ought to know that the Gospels and early records of the church are extremely reliable, but they are being misled by the current spate of books, movies, and television specials that offer torque instead of truth, sensation in place of sense, and the radical in place of the real. . . ." --Paul L. Maier Professor of Ancient History Western Michigan University Author, In the Fullness of Time "Reinventing Jesus effectively presents the other side of the public debate about Jesus where seemingly glitzy speculation is shown to be more like virtual reality than the history it often claims to be." --Darrell Bock Author, Breaking the Da Vinci Code and The Missing Gospels Research Professor of New Testament Studies, Dallas Theological Seminary "[The authors'] careful, painstaking analyses invite us to study the data for ourselves. . . . The endnotes alone are worth the cost of the book!" --Gary R. Habermas Distinguished Research Professor, Liberty University Author, The Historical Jesus J.

Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 1,3, Free University of Berlin (John-F.-Kennedy Institut ), course: ¿The Subaltern Speaks¿: Minority Literature in the USA, language: English, abstract: Around World War One, two American authors from different minority backgrounds published their seemingly unlike novels. In 1912, the African American diplomat and writer James Weldon Johnson published his narrative ¿The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man¿ anonymously, and in 1917, the Jewish American editor and journalist Abraham Cahan put out his novel ¿The Rise of David Levinsky¿. Despite all differences obvious between the authors and their protagonists, both novels nevertheless describe at their core the need to assimilate, the search for an American identity and the costs of assimilation. In their quest for an American identity, both protagonists, the former Orthodox Jew from Russia and the anonymous, light-skinned African American, chose to escape white Anglo-Saxon Protestant hostility towards their minority status by assimilating respectively by passing as far as possible into the dominant culture of white American society. The need to assimilate derives from the fear of marginalization and the hostility shown towards minority groups in America. It is precisely this threatening attitude in combination with a longing to take part in the dominant culture of American society that finally forces these characters to assimilate respectively to pass entirely. Despite their minority backgrounds, both protagonists manage to enter the dominant culture at last. But even though both men live up to a life of financial and social success at the end of the novels, their narratives are not simply average American success-stories, but rather tragic tales on the high costs of assimilation. Levinsky and the Ex-Colored Man live the classical American dream from ¿rags to riches¿, but in the end, both must nevertheless realize that wealth and a high social status alone do not guarantee true inner happiness. The conclusion seems bitter: one¿s marginality and minority status must be overcome in order to take part in the ¿American success story¿. But even though ethnic and racial backgrounds can be denied and essential parts of one¿s own identity can be ignored, full assimilation can never be achieved. The successful economic and social rise of the two men cannot be separated from the tragic personal failure to find their true identity and inner happiness. In their novels, Cahan and Johnson thus voice the dreadful loss of individual identity that full assimilation and passing ask for.

'What makes some pictures a masterpiece?

But what a 40,000 years, explored here by David Hockney and Martin Gayford in a brilliantly original book. They privilege no medium, or period, or style, but instead, in 16 chapters, discuss how and why pictures have been made, and insistently link 'art' to human skills and human needs. Each chapter addresses an important question: What happens when we try to express reality in two dimensions? Why is the 'Mona Lisa' beautiful and why are shadows so rarely found in Chinese, Japanese and Persian painting? Why are optical projections always going to be more beautiful than HD television can ever be? How have the makers of images depicted movement? What makes marks on a flat surface interesting? Energized by two lifetimes of looking at pictures, combined with a great artist's 70-year experience of experimentation as he makes them, this profoundly moving and enlightening volume will be the art book of the decade.

James Baldwin was a uniquely prophetic voice in American letters. His brilliant and provocative essays made him the literary voice of the Civil Rights Era, and they continue to speak with powerful urgency to us today, whether in the swirling debate over the Black Lives Matter movement or in the words of Raoul Peck's documentary "I Am Not Your Negro." Edited by Nobel laureate Toni Morrison, the Library of America's Collected Essays is the most comprehensive gathering of Baldwin's nonfiction ever published. With burning passion and jabbing, epigrammatic wit, Baldwin fearlessly articulated issues of race and democracy and American identity in such famous essays as "The Harlem Ghetto," "Everybody's Protest Novel," "Many Thousands Gone," and "Stranger in the Village." Here are the complete texts of his early landmark collections, Notes of a Native Son (1955) and Nobody Knows My Name (1961), which established him as an essential intellectual voice of his time, fusing in unique fashion the personal, the literary, and the political. "One writes," he stated, "out of one thing only-one's own experience. Everything depends on how relentlessly one forces from this experience the last drop, sweet or bitter, it can possibly give." With singular eloquence and unblinking sharpness of observation he lived up to his credo: "I want to be an honest man and a good writer." The classic The Fire Next Time (1963), perhaps the most influential of his writings, is his most penetrating analysis of America's racial divide and an impassioned call to "end the racial nightmare...and change the history of the world." The later volumes No Name in the Street (1972) and The Devil Finds Work (1976) chart his continuing response to the social and political turbulence of his era and include his remarkable works of film criticism. A further 36 essays-nine of them previously uncollected-include some of Baldwin's earliest published writings, as well as revealing later insights into the language of Shakespeare, the poetry of Langston Hughes, and the music of Earl Hines. LIBRARY OF AMERICA is an independent nonprofit cultural organization founded in 1979 to preserve our nation's literary heritage by publishing, and keeping permanently in print, America's best and most significant writing. The Library of America series includes more than 300 volumes to date, authoritative editions that average 1,000 pages in length, feature cloth covers, sewn bindings, and ribbon markers, and are printed on premium acid-free paper that will last for centuries.

For fans of The Rose Code and The Paris Library, The Librarian of Burned Books is a captivating WWII-era novel about the intertwined fates of three women who believe in the power of books to triumph over the very darkest moments of war. Berlin 1933 . Following the success of her debut novel, American writer Althea James receives an invitation from Joseph Goebbels himself to participate in a culture exchange program in Germany. For a girl from a small town in Maine, 1933 Berlin seems to be sparklingly cosmopolitan, blossoming in the midst of a great change with the charismatic new chancellor at the helm. Then Althea meets a beautiful woman who promises to show her the real Berlin, and soon she’s drawn into a secret group of resisters who make her question everything she knows about her hosts—and herself. Paris 1936 . She may have escaped Berlin for Paris, but Hannah Brecht discovers the City of Light is no refuge from the anti-Semitism and Nazi sympathizers she thought she left behind. Heartbroken and tormented by the role she played in the betrayal that destroyed her family, Hannah throws herself into her work at the German Library of Burned Books. Through the quiet power of books, she believes she can help counter the tide of fascism she sees rising across Europe and atone for her mistakes. But when a dear friend in the WWII resistance decides actions will speak louder than words, Hannah must decide what stories she is willing to live—or die—for. New York 1944 . Since her husband Edward was killed fighting the Nazis, Vivian Childs has been waging her own war: preventing a powerful senator’s attempts to censor the Armed Service Editions, portable paperbacks that are shipped by the millions to soldiers overseas. In her battle against censorship, Viv knows just how much they mean to the men through the letters she receives—including the last one she got from Edward. She also knows the only way to win this fight is to counter the senator’s propaganda with a story of her own—at the heart of which lies the reclusive and mysterious woman tending the American Library of Nazi-Banned Books in Brooklyn. As these multiple timelines converge and Viv unknowingly brings her fight crashing into the secrets of the recent past, the fates of these three women will change all of them forever. Inspired by the true story of the Council of Books in Wartime—the WWII organization founded by booksellers, publishers, librarians, and authors to use books as “weapons in the war of ideas”—The Librarian of Burned Books is an unforgettable work of historical fiction, a haunting love story, and a testament to the beauty, power, and goodness of the written word.

For fans of The Rose Code and The Paris Library, The Librarian of Burned Books is a captivating WWII-era novel about the intertwined fates of three women who believe in the power of books to triumph over the very darkest moments of war. Berlin 1933 . Following the success of her debut novel, American writer Althea James receives an invitation from Joseph Goebbels himself to participate in a culture exchange program in Germany. For a girl from a small town in Maine, 1933 Berlin seems to be sparklingly cosmopolitan, blossoming in the midst of a great change with the charismatic new chancellor at the helm. Then Althea meets a beautiful woman who promises to show her the real Berlin, and soon she’s drawn into a secret group of resisters who make her question everything she knows about her hosts—and herself. Paris 1936 . She may have escaped Berlin for Paris, but Hannah Brecht discovers the City of Light is no refuge from the anti-Semitism and Nazi sympathizers she thought she left behind. Heartbroken and tormented by the role she played in the betrayal that destroyed her family, Hannah throws herself into her work at the German Library of Burned Books. Through the quiet power of books, she believes she can help counter the tide of fascism she sees rising across Europe and atone for her mistakes. But when a dear friend in the WWII resistance decides actions will speak louder than words, Hannah must decide what stories she is willing to live—or die—for. New York 1944 . Since her husband Edward was killed fighting the Nazis, Vivian Childs has been waging her own war: preventing a powerful senator’s attempts to censor the Armed Service Editions, portable paperbacks that are shipped by the millions to soldiers overseas. In her battle against censorship, Viv knows just how much they mean to the men through the letters she receives—including the last one she got from Edward. She also knows the only way to win this fight is to counter the senator’s propaganda with a story of her own—at the heart of which lies the reclusive and mysterious woman tending the American Library of Nazi-Banned Books in Brooklyn. As these multiple timelines converge and Viv unknowingly brings her fight crashing into the secrets of the recent past, the fates of these three women will change all of them forever. Inspired by the true story of the Council of Books in Wartime—the WWII organization founded by booksellers, publishers, librarians, and authors to use books as “weapons in the war of ideas”—The Librarian of Burned Books is an unforgettable work of historical fiction, a haunting love story, and a testament to the beauty, power, and goodness of the written word.

Interior designer and television host Jeremiah Brent explores the emotional meaning of home in this warm and inviting home decor book that illuminates what make peoples' spaces so personally significant. For many of us, our houses are more than just where we hold our belongings. They are reflections of who we are and where we've been. They represent our aesthetics, our personalities - provide us with purpose and intention, and if we're lucky, a safe space to live and create. For years, Jeremiah Brent and his family lived in one beautiful home after the next. Yet after a short time, they always felt the pull to move on. Curious to understand why, he embarked on a deeply personal mission to discover what makes a home a space that keeps you. The Space That Keeps You isn't just a study of beautiful interior design; it's an emotional design book that explores what gives spaces meaning. Through candid conversations with nine individuals and families varying in backgrounds, lifestyles, and geographic locations, Jeremiah reveals how and why the spaces we inhabit come to feel like they truly belong to us-the memories, emotions, and inspiring personal stories that shape what home signifies. He introduces memorable people like the artist couple James and Alexandra Brown and their children who made an abandoned plot in Merida, Mexico their accidental paradise, and Tracy and Brian Robbins who found refuge during the pandemic in a serene single-story home in Montecito surrounded by fields of lavender. He illuminates a personal side of Oprah Winfrey as she speaks to the importance of nature in her dream of home, and describes the story of Giberto and Bianca Arrivabene, who fought to hold onto their family's historic Venetian palazzo. Their stories are bookended by Jeremiah's recollections of his own journey defining home with his husband, fellow interior designer and television personality Nate Berkus, and their two children. Filled with intimate, meaningful details-from the kitchen that now nourishes the grandchildren of the adoring couple who first cooked there fifty years ago to the beams of one apartment's walls that are etched with hearts to literally represent the love that fills it-and accompanied by 300 inviting and inspiring color photographs-this beautiful coffee table book illustrates the essence of what makes a house a home. Just like Jeremiah himself, readers will leave this book with a newfound appreciation for the power of interior design and the places that connect and shape us. Go beyond design to discover the heart of home: An Emotional Approach to Design: Go beyond a study of beautiful interiors to explore the memories, stories, and feelings that truly make a space feel like it belongs to you. Exclusive Celebrity Homes: Join candid conversations with noteworthy people, including a personal visit with Oprah Winfrey at her Montecito home, "The Promised Land". A Personal Design Journey: Follow Jeremiah's own story as he and his husband, Nate Berkus, search for the true meaning of home for their family. Stunning Photography: Immerse yourself in 300 inviting and inspiring color photographs that make this the perfect addition to any design lover's coffee table.
